I was kind of figuring that was what had happened, but I didn't want to switch back to mercurial just in case i might break something else. Let alone I didn't know if I'd lose the wiki page all together, or if it was best to just wait for a response. Curious though, I would've thought being it's a CVS system, that it should drop all old revisions and pick up a new when switching from one to another. I guess this isn't the thing for me to ask, and just get on with my life. Thanks. -James
